Owner complaintsComplaints are reports submitted to NHTSA by owners and drivers. NHTSA does not verify most reports before publishing them, and a complaint does not establish that a defect exists. Volume is influenced by how many of a vehicle were sold, how long it has been on the road, and how much attention an issue has received.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2013 CRUISER RV VIEWFINDER BEING HAULED BY A 2013 CHEVROLET SILVERADO 1500. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER WAS NON-COMPLIANT WITH THE WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION FOR THE TRAVEL TRAILER, WHICH CAUSED A FAILURE MORE THAN ONCE. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS HAULING THE TRAILER, THE WHEELS WOBBLED EXTENSIVELY AND THE TRAILER SWAYED IN AN UNSAFE MANNER. IN ADDITION, THE AXLES FRACTURED AND THE SPRINGS FAILED. THE DEALER REPLACED ALL OF THE AXLES AND THE SPRINGS, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. AFTER THE REPAIR REMEDY, THE TRAILER STILL WOBBLED EXCESSIVELY AND THE SUSPENSION WAS UNSTABLE DUE TO THE FAILURE OF THE WEIGHT DISTRIBUTION CONCERNING THE COMPONENTS BEING STRESSED. THE DEALER WAS NOTIFIED AND THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED NO REPAIR SOLUTION. THE VEHICLE WAS AT THE DEALER FOR MORE THAN A MONTH AND THE CONTACT WAS UNABLE TO DETERMINE WHEN THE TRAVEL TRAILER WOULD BE REPAIRED. THERE WAS NO MILEAGE.

Too few reports in this category for a page of its own — they appear in the full complaint list.

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
